Giordano for a person and Giordania for the country are Italian equivalents of the English name "Jordan." The first-mentioned masculine proper noun which originates in the ancient Hebrew ירדן (Yarden, "one who descends, flows down") designates a person's forename or surname whereas the second-mentioned feminine noun references the ancient Middle Eastern country. Regardless of use, the pronunciation remains "djor-DA-no" in Italian.
